Journey to the West, also known as Monkey King, is a classic Chinese novel written by Wu Cheng'en in the 16th century. It tells the story of a monk named Xuanzang and his three disciples, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, and Sha Wujing, as they journey to the west to obtain Buddhist scriptures.

The story begins with the introduction of Sun Wukong, a monkey born from a stone who acquires supernatural powers and becomes the king of the monkeys. He rebels against the Jade Emperor of Heaven and is imprisoned under a mountain for 500 years. Xuanzang, a Buddhist monk, is tasked by the Bodhisattva Guanyin to retrieve the scriptures from India to bring salvation to the people of China. He is accompanied by Sun Wukong, who is released from his imprisonment to serve as his disciple.

Along the way, they encounter many obstacles and battles with demons and monsters. They also meet Zhu Bajie, a pig demon who joins them as their second disciple, and

Sha Wujing, a former Heavenly General turned river monster who becomes their third disciple. Together, they face challenges such as crossing the river of sand, defeating the White Bone Demon, and escaping the clutches of the spider demon.

The journey is not without its setbacks, as the group is often hindered by the schemes of the evil demon king, who seeks to capture Xuanzang and eat his flesh to become immortal. However, with the help of their combined strength and the guidance of the Bodhisattva Guanyin, they are able to overcome these obstacles and continue on their quest.

In the end, they successfully obtain the Buddhist scriptures and return to China, where Xuanzang is hailed as a hero. Sun Wukong is granted Buddhahood and becomes a protector of the Buddhist faith, while Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing are also rewarded for their service.

Journey to the West is a timeless classic that has been adapted into various forms of media, including films, TV shows, and video games. Its enduring popularity is a

testament to the universal appeal of its themes of friendship, loyalty, and perseverance in the face of adversity.
